Deano Home!

When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie, that's a kitty! Cannot get photo of actual cat, who has spent most of the day under the bed, but he is home and doing well.

Deano update

We were hoping Deano could come home today but he had some bleeding from the amputation site overnight, so they're keeping him one more night for observation. I truly appreciate all the Etsy sales, donations, and good wishes.

Deano

Cat emergency: Something has gone terribly wrong with our Deano's right front leg, either a tumor or a freak break, and it will probably have to be amputated. The vet is working with us, but it's still going to be pricey, so I'm running a coupon special in both my shops. Now through Sunday, enter coupon code DEANO at checkout for 20% off any item from NolaLooks (handmade jewelry and vintage fashion) or PZBART (original artwork and signed prints) .

Also, if you don't want to make a purchase but would like to help with his medical care, it's possible to call the Magazine Street Animal Clinic at 504-891-4115 and tell them you'd like to contribute to Deano Martin's medical fund.

Doctor Woes

Seriously thinking of switching the doctor who's managing my medical transition. Thanks to kind public support (thanks for passing the word, everyone!) and decent Etsy sales, I've made enough to pay for my testosterone refill, but my doctor has yet to call it in after three reminders and I'm already a week overdue for my shot. He's done this before; he also still refers to me by female pronouns, which is bad, and blatantly commits major HIPA violations like dictating patients' personal information ("MR. SMITH HAS AN ADHESION ON HIS PENIS!") in the hearing of other patients, which is much worse. After my mom's stroke, I took her to a urologist for a related issue she was having, and I really liked him -- he seemed eccentric and had displays of weird art, taxidermy, and antique medical instruments in his office, so I doubt he'd have any qualms about treating me. The problem will be coming up with the money for an initial visit plus whatever blood work he'll want me to have done, which usually costs a fortune. Also, it takes time to get an initial appointment, and I need the T NOW. For the moment, I guess I'll keep harassing my current doctor.
